Well, just think about it this way, Heck...

If you could help someone out, and then later found yourself stuck, that person (or team) might be there to help you out.

If you help no one... no one is going to help you.

True, but I don't think anyone should help another team. Like in the Amazing Race if/when they did help each other it would be minimal and very infrequent. I would rather see teams work indenpendent over gaggles of goofballs trying to be petty and screw each other. Save that for Big Brother

Well, I think that there would be a lot less "helping" and "teaming up" if they did one really important thing.

When they leave, at the beginning of a "mission" they shouldn't all get to go at the same time. There should be time penalities. If you show up first, you are the first to leave for the next thing. The second team should leave at a certain penalty time after that, and so on and so forth.

Agreed. That's how AR does it and it works for them. Not to mention they all have cell phones and talk to each other. Weak and hella lame. With the computers this thing is far too easy, I thought it would be a lot more challenging.

Well, it's easy, in some ways... but, there are challenges, Heck!!!

Besides, I believe that once they get down to like 5 teams, we're going to see some REALLY hard stuff thrown at them.

Plus, this is the launch show... the tester, if you will. They will be getting a lot of feed back, and I believe, changing things around, and making improvements to the game as time goes on.

You're right. But you know how impatient I am. I wanted it stuck to them in the first episode. As long as it gets tougher I'm cool with it.

My main problem with the challenges is that even if another team doesn't help you, which is often, they aren't overly difficult. It seems more scavenger hunt rather than teams hunting for clues. I think the clues should be tougher and there should be more red herrings.

That's what I was hoping for too... and I think that it will be that way come the later challenges!

The finale better be huge or I will riot.

Wonder if they will do this again next season. I haven't heard much about the ratings so far...

I wouldn't mind if it came back, so far it's solid for a summer show, not much else on to begin with.

The production value is impressive but that means the budget is probably pretty big. So unless the ratings are up there it might not come back.
